Commonwealth v. O'Keefe

This case comes within the same rule as Commonwealth v. Lewis, ante, 251, and the cases there cited. The charge of keeping intoxicating liquors with intent to sell them without authority must have been understood by the defendant as alleging that he kept them for sale, in violation of the St. of 1875, o. 99, which was the only statute in force at the time in question, and the defect is mere matter of form.

Exceptions overruled.
